Crow..?
Nightingale..?
Don’t know until it sings..!
If the song is melodious
Shouldn’t it be continued?
Incubate it?
Grow it?
Nightingale
Can it be a cannibal?
Can it preserve the environment?
Can it fullfill the wishes of your ancestors?
Can it carry the Saturn?
Can it tolerate your protest?
O! The so called
Aristocratic poets,
Write about the uninvited guests of the spring
Do continue writing
Till you get popular
But
I can never be your shawl
Let me exist
As my self
Also read: Death certificate
Also read: Count it as…!
